Digital Retort Controls for Reliable, CFR-Compliant Processing
Smarter Retort Controls for Safer, Faster Processing
Industrial retorts are the backbone of canned food safety — from soups and sauces to pet food — used to sterilize product under high temperature and pressure. Regulatory requirements (like those in the Code of Federal Regulations, 21 CFR 113) traditionally specified mercury-in-glass thermometers, but Anderson-Negele pioneered digital alternatives that meet or exceed those standards.
Why Upgrade to Our Digital Retort Controls?
- Digital accuracy with redundant sensor elements for fail-safe measurement (FH-3 / FH-4)
- Reference thermometer (FD-DART) that can measure accurately over long distances from the process while preserving compliance
- No more fragile mercury, no more guesswork. Digital gauges read easily, self-diagnose, and are built tough for high heat and pressure conditions.
